Stoke put their foot down for 10 or so mins and scored 2 goals. Conceded none.

Stoke put their foot down for 10 or so mins and scored 2 goals. Conceded none. Analogy: Driving down the motorway and a nuisance driver keeps driving up your boot. So you decide to tickle the accelerator in your BMW and pull away, leaving the ranting wannabe behind, whilst playing Moody Blues “Ride my Seesaw” .

On sleeping on it, it was another classic game of the winner is the one who takes their chances.
We have dropped points earlier this season through missing chances, yesterday we took ours while Luton missed theirs despite having more.
At the risk of tempting fate, now we have a couple of young CBs who can actually jump, we look a lot safer at corners. It's the "spring" in the legs that goes first and our older CBs show it, with the exception of Batth in the opposition box. He then suddenly becomes a lot better at jumping, maybe because he gets a run at the ball, which he can't when defending a corner.

What ever happened to the old adage “good teams can play badly and win”. We have above average championship quality all over the pitch. The fact that we can play poorly for 45 minutes then step it up and win comfortably bodes well. We don’t need to be playing brilliant football and overwhelming teams in October. We simply need to be picking up points Well done to one AND all yesterday. Sadly we missed a great away day
